Activity steps

  1. Chill and set out

    Chill the bottles. Set out two glasses, two teaspoons and a napkin per guest. Put the measuring cups on a tray.

  2. Mix two potions

    Blood Moon Fizz: 60 ml cranberry juice drink + 15 ml lime juice + 75 ml sparkling water. Golden Cauldron: 60 ml pineapple juice + 30 ml orange juice + 60 ml sparkling water. Stir gently. Each makes one 150 ml taster.

  3. Taste and name

    Pick your favorite, give it a spooky name and write it on a card. Add a little bat drawing for the table.

Host tip: Use glasses and spoons from home. Pour seated or with a partner if useful.

Check juice labels and guests’ dietary needs. Use clean measures and wipe spills as you go.
